Terrible hours, pay, and benefits. Don't think that hard work and dedication will get you anywhere with this company. No promotions, perks, and 15 cent raises. Cheapest company I have ever worked for. MOVE ON!

Advice to ManagementAdvice

Reward your employees for hard work and years spent with this company. Give some decent raises and recognition to those who deserve it.

As an on call Group Fitness Instructor the pay is great for each 45 minute class. I enjoyed working with the gym members and having free reign to design classes. Also, some opportunities to sub for an hourly rate.

The pay rate for full-time is rather low (32-34k) but is only M-F. You are paid extra for personal training DURING work hours.

Cons

The pay rate is rather low for full-time employees and the workload is very high. Schedules are more or less fixed and you do not get paid extra to teach classes, they are apart of your job. Managers do not communicate with employees and are puppets acting for higher managers. Management treats employees like "staff" and not fellow employees when only 3 people are full-time.

Management asked employees to get a certification and was promised to be moved up in the company then was terminated suddenly and without merit.

Advice to ManagementAdvice

Have better communication with on call employees. If you have someone that wants to move up in the company, give them a clear understanding of those possibilities.

- Compensation is good- Time off is fair- Healthcare knowledge is good

Cons

Walgreen's recently sold the Employers Solution Group of TCH and a very bad merger with a much smaller company was forced. Since the ESG Group had a Divisional structure the new owners placed the smaller company's management in charge. This new team is woefully inadequate and are operating from a 10 year old business plan and operating structure.

generally the onsite health offices are great places to work and care for patients.

Cons

However they tend to single provider units and Take Care as a company sometimes has trouble really meeting the needs of the provider in an organized and effective manner. The corporate feel only increased over the 3 years I worked for them, but I wouldn't consider any of these issues a deal breaker as the onsite clinic are generally great places to work

Advice to ManagementAdvice

Keep everyone in the loop in communication really helps smooth the bumps in the road

Flexibility with work time as long as the job gets done. Able to work independently. Casual work environment. Compensation fair. Positive work life balance.

Cons

No opportunity for growth or development. Mid-level management too overwhelmed and overstressed to listen.They are uninformed of company policy and procedure. Junior lead staff are inexperienced and poorly trained making them stressed in dealing with their role. End users receive no support. Impersonal, apathetic culture.

Advice to ManagementAdvice

Value your employees, mentor them, grow them in the company, listen to them.
